Capturing supernatural beings who inhabit our world
YOKAI " TSUKUMOGAMI "
Takashi TARUYA pursued Identity as the Japanese many times And I came to stare at Japan which did view of the world "Koshintō" of the animism said to that much God dwelled in all things with mental ancestors.
In Japan which I looked at from the foreign countries , supply and demand were managed , but were a country of the low conservation of nature of the level of consciousness .I used the gold leaf which was Japanese bright tradition culture for an art work including Japanese old tradition culture and a search of the mind to dwell in there ."付喪神 (Tsukumogami)" is gods told to dwell in a tool and a domestic animal after time and lets you feel the awe towards people and is existence letting a thing bring back to mind to value.
Now that I repeated mass resources consumption by the desire of the person, I think that there is a thing learning from Tsukumogami.I revivified the tradition that illustrators copied repeatedly from the Muromachi era in an original viewpoint in the present age.
There is the following record in "Tsukumogami-emaki 付喪神絵巻 " of the Muromachi era .
"The old tools change to a god after a long time. And they confuse people’s heart. They are called Tsukumogami."

VARIOUS YOKAI" TSUKUMOGAMI "
KYOTO JAPAN
The mass consumption era begins in the Heian era , and what "付喪神 (Tsukumogami)" has begun to spread among is said to be after .
The tools which had been used in the shade that a production technology developed , and new tools were produced so far were discarded . Because there was the faith that I disguised myself as when a soul dwelled in an old thing and treated the secondhand articles which finished a duty , and were thrown away rudely , they were suggested as a personified ghost , and the people might hold the attachment with fear . What I have begun to resell a discarded secondhand article to is considered to be the origin of the old secondhand articles bazaar of Kitano-Tenman-gu Shrine(北野天満宮) of Kyoto . It is said that a course of " Tsukumogami parade of night (付喪神夜行) " that Tsukumogami dwelling in a secondhand article thrown away by a human being band together at midnight and march is in current Kyoto . Takashi TARUYA who have been living in Kyoto for many years go frequently to obtain gold leaf of Kyoto .
I did brightness of the gold leaf which was the culture that had been handed down that Japan was proud of to a base about Tsukumogami which was the ghost of the instrument . And I hand down the mysterious charm of ghosts who have been loved for a long time by a Japanese through production while appealing for importance of ecology and the recycling .
TSUKUMOGAMI PARADE OF NIGHT
" Tsukumogami parade of night (付喪神夜行) " means a phenomenon that many heteromorphic ghosts band together at midnight and march . It was said , and it was thought that it took place in Kyoto of the Heian era even if there was the thing named " 夜行日(a night travel day) " that this apparition was easy to take place . When and I talked with a Yin Yang fortune-teller because old nobles did not meet a crowd of ghosts and avoided that I went out at the night on "a night travel day" or I went out, I seemed to carry the lucky charm of the talisman against evil. The story of the Tsukumogami which I am left alone in『Tsukumogami-emaki』 by people, and the heart of a mountain was filled with is created. The production of the picture scroll at the time is considered to be the Muromachi era, but the times setting of the story seems to become in the middle of the Heian era. Tsukumogami worship their God called the change great gracious god there, and a description that I band together under the pretense of a festival at a night and paraded from the west to the east leaves it over. Tsukumogami worship their God called the change great gracious god there, and a description
that I band together under the pretense of a festival at a night and paraded from the west to the east leaves it over. In other words, this was the ghost of the secondhand article, a parade of Tsukumogami. And When "ICHIJOUan Street" of Kyoto was the course of
the crime wave of Tsukumogami, there is a description.There is Kitano-Tenman-gu Shrine(北野天満宮) where I resold a secondhand article to around of "ICHIJOU Street", and Daitoku-ji Temple and the Funaoka mountain which possess" Tsukumogami parade of night (付喪神夜行) "when I go north a little from there exist. I started it to be labelled according to current Article 1 at the generalissimo mall for 2,005 years when it was the way of Tsukumogami, and to wake up the town called "YOKAI Street". A gap produces is a trace of the Heian era, a cross-formed, going everywhere now. However, most of the positions are said not to change in those days. I accuse importance of ecology and the recycling about Tsukumogami which is the ghost of the instrument, and I will hand down the charm of ghosts who have been loved for a long time by a Japanese through production.
